    I believe we lost a Sony Cyber-shot camera at the museum on Monday, September 6th. The pictures on the camera have a lot of sentimental value. If anyone has picked it up I would love to hear from you!

    Hello,

    I am planning to visit the Steven F Udvar Hazy (SFUH) Center soon, during the weekend.
    However I live in DC and I don't have a car, so I would like to use the public transportation...

    According to what I found online, it seems that the only way to reach the SFUH Center is the VRTA buses between Dulles Airport and the museum. I noticed that, during the weekend, the departure are X:15 every hour. However I'm surprised to notice that all the 5A buses to Dulles from DC arrived at X:25 or 27, that means 10 minutes after the bus leave! That means that every people using public transportations need to wait around 50 minutes at Dulles Airport to have a bus...

    And the same problem occur for the way back... Each of the buses arrive at Dulles Airport 5 minutes after the 5A buses to DC leave, so your customers have to wait 55 minutes at Dulles Airport!!

    Finally, from DC, the average time to arrive at the SFUH Center seems to be 3 hours + 3 hours back!

    I would like a confirmation that these schedule are correct, and that there is no other way to go to the SFUH Center.
    Or confirmation that the VRTA buses and 5A buses to DC are waiting each other before to leave.

    Thank you for your answer.

    While we were at your museum in June, I got a navy blue t-shirt with planes taking off on the back and on the left front it says: NATIONAL AIR AND SPACE MUSEUM
    Steven E Udvar-Hazy Center.

    I got a large for my son but he needs a larger one. Do you have any in XX-Large? How much is it? It is stock number 4505913 for $20.00.
